CARPT and CT measurements were carried out in a gas-liquid stirred vessel operating in two different flow regimes and captured the quantitative Eulerian information of gas-liquid flow. The CARPT data was then used to extract the circulation tune distribution in a vessel. A two-fluid model along with the standard k-epsilon turbulence model was used to simulate the dispersed gas-liquid flow in a stirred vessel. Appropriate drag corrections to account for bulk turbulence (along the lines proposed by Brucato et al. (Chem. Eng. Sci. 45(1998) 3295)) were developed to correctly simulate different flow regimes. The computational snapshot approach was used to simulate impeller rotation and was implemented in the commercial CFD code, FLUENT4.5 (of Fluent. Inc., USA). Most model predictions compared favourably with CARPT and CT measurements. Validated CFD models as attempted in this paper are promising to simulation of industrial stirred vessels.

Three-dimensional, unsteady simulations were performed to simulate the dynamic characteristics of the oscillating bubble plume. The effect of superficial gas velocity and aerated liquid height-to-column width (HI K) ratio on the dynamic and time-averaged flow properties was studied and the simulated results were validated using wall pressure and voidage fluctuation measurements. The effect of lift force and numerical diffusion on the dynamic and time-averaged properties is discussed in detail. Further, the results obtained using the Eulerian-Lagrangian simulations were compared with the Eulerian-Eulerian simulations. The bubble scale information, which is otherwise lost in the Eulerian-Eulerian simulations, was validated using the voidage fluctuation measurements. Such experimentally validated Eulerian-Lagrangian models will be useful for the simulation of mass transfer and reactions in bubble columns. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
